Your Deionizer System

How does the deionizer work?

Your system is simple and maintenance-free. When your monitor light

signals that your water quality has dropped below the desired quality, you

just exchange the resin pack and return it to AmeriWater for regeneration.

How does the regeneration work?

AmeriWater’s regeneration center maintains the resin used in the

deionizer. When your resin pack is exhausted, just exchange it with your

“stand-by” resin pack, and ship the exhausted pack to AmeriWater with a

regeneration coupon. We will regenerate the resin and return it within one

day after receipt. It’s as simple as that!

How long is the resin shelf life?

The resin has a shelf life of approximately one year. It is shipped to you in

a plastic bag to prevent the exchangers from drying out. Inside the plastic

bag, the resin is stored in a nylon pack that never has to be opened.

What is a deionizer?

To fully appreciate deionization and how it works, we must first look at the

contaminants found in our water supply and what purification processes

may be needed, in addition to deionization, to provide the level of water

purity for your specific application.

Because pure water is the “supreme solvent”, it actively gathers

contaminants from everything it passes over or through. Dissolved

ionized solids such as Sodium (Na+), Calcium (Ca+), and Chloride (Cl-) are

stripped from rock and soil. Organic molecules are gathered from

decaying debris and environmental pollutants. Particles include organic

debris, dirt and rust from soil and piping; bacteria and microbials (including

pyrogens) from normal growth in water; dissolved ionized gases such as

Chlorine (Cl2) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from water treatment and organic

decay; and colloids from rock and sand. All of these contaminants are

present in varying concentrations in water. Each presents different

problems to users depending upon their application.

Ionic contaminants are dissolved within the chemical structure of water.

Dissolved ionized solids and dissolved ionized gases are removed using

ion exchange resin, which act like tiny magnets stripping ions from water,

replacing them with H and OH ions which ultimately join to form water

(H2O). Ion exchange resins are synthetic polymers with many ion

exchange sites attached to the surface.

What is resistivity/conductivity?

The majority of impurities in potable water are in the form of disassociated

ionized mineral salts, such as NaCl and CaCO3. Because such ions carry

an electrical charge, their presence is directly related to the ability of the

water to conduct electricity (conductivity). Conversely, their relative

absence is directly proportional to the water’s inability to conduct

electricity, or it’s resistivity. Hence, resistivity, (and it’s reciprocal,

conductivity) are the best parameters by which to gauge the quality of

purified water.

Resistivity is measured in ohms/cm and it’s reciprocal, conductivity is

measured in mhos/cm or siemens. It is important to realize that resistivity

and conductivity are measures of only ionic impurities and are not affected

by particulates, bacteria, or other organic contamination.

Installation

Preparation

1. Locate the unit on a firm flat mounting surface capable of supporting 35 lbs. It

should be mounted high enough to allow placement of a bucket under the

system in order to drain the system when resin packs require exchange.

2. You will need a 115-Volt AC power source for the quality monitor light.

3. It is important to install isolation valves on the inlet and outlet side of each unit

to allow the system to be isolated for resin pack exchange. The outlet side of

the deionizer unit should connect to plastic or stainless steel piping or tubing

only. The use of other materials may result in contamination of the purified

water.

4. The deionizer is designed for a maximum pressure of 65 psi. A regulator is

required if your pressure exceeds 65 psi.

WARNING: Do not exceed 65 psi feed pressure or damage to the system

and personal injury may occur!

5. The maximum flow for each deionizer is 1 GPM. If the flow increases above

this load value then additional deionizers should be installed to lower the flow

on each system.

6. Pre- and post-filters as well as additional monitors are available as options.

NOTE: One of the most important, but often-neglected factors

contributing to the successful operation of the system, is the

care with which the piping is installed. Correctly sized fittings

and careful cleaning are very important. Metal Particles,

solder flux, threading compounds, and other contaminating

materials must be flushed thoroughly from the piping system

prior to allowing water to enter the deionizer.

7. A floor drain or sufficient means of dispensing water must be provided to

allow the system to be drained when the resin packs require exchange.

Procedure

These procedures should be followed to allow proper operation of the deionizer.

All local plumbing and electrical codes should be followed.

1. Unpack the deionizer from its box and inspect for damage. Report damage to

AmeriWater immediately.

2. Mount the deionizer on a sturdy flat surface capable of supporting 35 pounds.

Allow a minimum of 4-6" from the bottom of the deionizer to the floor to allow

for the removal of the deionizer housing for resin pack exchange. Additional

space may be required if you intend to drain the system into a bucket.

3. Using the mounting holes on the mounting bracket as a template, locate holes

on the surface.

4. Secure the mounting bracket to mounting surface. It may be necessary to

use extra supports.

5. Connect inlet of the deionizer to a manual isolation valve sized to

accommodate the flow rate of the system (maximum of 1 GPM).

6. Plug the power adapter into a dedicated 115-Volt AC receptacle.

Start-Up

Installing the resin pack

1. With the isolation valves turned off, loosen the tube fitting on the bottom of the

deionizer housing. Remove the tubing from the fitting.

2. Using the filter wrench, loosen and remove the

lower deionizer body by turning it counterclockwise.

Verify that the O-ring stays in the O-ring groove.

3. Install the resin pack into deionizer body.

4. Attach the deionizer body back onto the cap and reconnect the tube fitting.

5. Remove the tubing from the deionizer outlet isolation valve and place it in a

bucket or direct to a drain.

6. Open the inlet isolation valve slowly to start water flow to the deionizer.

7. Allow water to run through the deionizer until all air is purged from the system.

After all of the air is removed reinstall the outlet tubing to the outlet isolation

valve.

8. The quality monitor may glow red for a couple of minutes before changing to

green.

Open the drain valve on the bottom of the housing.

Remove the resin pack from the box and plastic bag.

Stretch the resin pack over your arm to elongate the

pack, and feed it into the housing.

Resin Pack Exchange

When the quality monitor light changes from green to red, the resin pack needs

to be exchanged.

NOTE: If the deionizer has not been in use, run water through the system

for several minutes. If the light changes to green, resin pack does not need

to be exchanged. If the light remains red, complete the following steps for

resin pack exchange.

1. Close the inlet and outlet isolation valves and place a catch basin under the

deionizer.

2. Open the test port (drain) located on the bottom of the deionizer housing to

relieve pressure and drain the system.

3. After the pressure is relieved, loosen the tube fitting on the bottom of the

deionizer body and remove the tube.

4. Using the filter wrench, loosen and remove the housing by turning it counter

clockwise.

5. Remove the exhausted resin pack and install a new resin pack.

6. Follow the start-up procedures to pressurize system before use.

a) Attach the deionizer body back onto the cap and reconnect the tube

fitting, and remove the tubing from the deionizer outlet isolation valve

and place it in a bucket or direct to a drain.

b) Open the inlet isolation valve slowly to start water flow to the deionizer.

Allow water to run through the deionizer until all air is purged from the

system. After all of the air is removed reinstall the outlet tubing to the

outlet isolation valve.

c) The quality monitor may glow red for a couple of minutes before

changing to green.

7. Place the exhausted resin pack into the packaging from the replacement

pack. Fill out and attach a regeneration certificate on the outside of the

package. Ship the exhausted package to the address on the certificate. A

new pack will be shipped within 24 hours of receipt.

8. Order additional resin pack regeneration certificates from AmeriWater, Part

Number 002100C.

Resin Pack Regeneration

Regeneration certificates are used to simplify the exchange of your exhausted

resin packs. Simply follow these four steps:

1. Place an order for your future supply of regeneration certificates. Our

minimum order is three (3) certificates.

2. Clearly print your name and address on the certificate and enclose it along

with the exhausted resin pack that you are returning. For your convenience,

these instructions are printed along the bottom of each certificate.

3. When your resin pack is received at the center, a new pack will be sent to you

using the certificate you’ve enclosed with your shipment.

4. AmeriWater recommends that you return your exhausted resin immediately

after you change packs. This will allow ample time for return shipment.

With this program, you are billed at the time you order the regeneration

certificates. This eliminates the need for any extra paperwork and phone calls

when your resin pack needs to be exchanged.

Servicing Your System

Disinfecting your deionizer

AmeriWater recommends that you disinfect your deionizer periodically to ensure

continuous high-quality water is produced. To disinfect the system, follow these

easy steps:

1. Remove the resin pack from the system.

2. Pour one tablespoon of household chlorine bleach into the filter sump.

3. Close the system completely.

4. Turn on the water to flush through the system until you can smell the chlorine.

5. Turn off the water and allow the system to stand for 15 minutes.

6. After 15 minutes, turn the water supply on to flush out your deionizer. Allow

water to flow until you can no longer smell chlorine at the system outlet.

7. Drain the deionizer and verify that all standing water in the system is

removed.

Apart from regular resin pack exchange and disinfection, your deionizer requires

no maintenance.

In the event your deionizer system is damaged, contact AmeriWater to order

replacement parts.
